This database lists contributions to Maine political action committees involved in the 2018 campaigns for governor and the Legislature.
The data was drawn from campaign finance reports filed with the Maine Ethics Commission as of 7 p.m. on Friday Oct. 5, and include contributions and expenditures made from April 1, 2017 through the end of September. The database will be updated as additional reports are filed.
Maine campaign finance law permits these organizations to spend unlimited amounts of money to influence legislative elections as long as these groups do not coordinate with the candidates’ campaigns.
Comments are not available on this story. Read more about why we allow commenting on some stories and not on others.
We believe it’s important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It’s a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
